There is no time limit prescribed. You can apply for registration at the time of lauch of product, even after years of launch of product and even for products which you may launch in future.

Dear sir,
Thank you for the reply but for clarification I am talking about GRANTING OF EXCLUSIVE USER RIGHT & not for fresh registration of a new product . Here one can file for TM-28 to get it registered. Some one in office found that its 6 months form the date of agreement, is it correct ??? Do reply,
Regards,
